Hey, Robert E. Lee!

[Shuai]

Hey Robert E. Lee, I just read your post in the general literature forum. How can you be for racial segregation? An, exactly what race are you?

[imthefoolonthehill]

Really? Where did he say that?

[Munro]

He appears racist and bigoted in his comments, I have noticed. That's not to suggest he is like that by nature, but like you both, I question what views his comments reflect. What do you have to say, Robert E. Lee?
So far he has called British 'pansys' and paraded the supremacy of American culture, particularly over literature of foreign languages.
Wasn't Robert E. Lee the general who led the racist and pro-slavery south in the American Civil War? I don't know the war in depth, but why would you idolise someone like that, with those beliefs?
